Hi guys,
Just had a thought as I was flickin round your forum, and something struck me.. No not the mouse, keyboard, or the missus tryin to get my ass of the computer (although thats a normal thing)...

I like your installed/not installed thing as it givesme an area where I can see what I have and have not installed, as sometimes tryin to remember what is an original part of vb is not as easy as ya think LOL

Anyways, I uninstall if I remove the hack, which is great as it shows me how many hacks I have, and coders how many people have installed there hack.

Now for the question...... We have an upgrade to VB meaning all hacks need to be re-writen, but if people uninstall then the coders don`t get an acurate look at how popular the hack is, and may not convert a hack due to thinking it`s not very popular... So how`s about an upgrade button, that resets all hacks to unistall user-side, but shows the coder previously installed before upgrade.. This way what was thought of as unpopular hacks may be seen as more popular and therefore encourage people to re-create.. Will save on requests, and should in effect mean priority on hack releasing for coders who produce lots of hacks can be acheived

Thoughts anyone?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
